Disc degeneration may be a result of abnormal biomechanical stresses, including injury. Proper care, including appropriate, low-force chiropractic; nutritional support; ergonomic counseling; exercises and stretches, can help slow or halt the degenerative process.

Facet Compression
Facet compression in the spine can be very painful. The facets are the parts of the vertebrae that actually touch ( the vertebral bodies are separated by the discs). When the facets get "jammed," the muscles and other soft tissue in the area may become tense and inflammed. This needs precise ACTIVATOR chiropractic adjustments to relieve.

Shin Splints
Shin splints is pain in the front of the leg below the knee. Your ACTIVATOR chiropractor knows that it's almost always associated with a misalignment of the fibula, the smaller bone in the lower leg. There may be other misalignments or fixations in joints associated with the tibia, knee, or ankle.

Tennis elbow
Tennis elbow can be stubborn to resolve; it takes careful adjusting with ACTIVATOR Chiropractic, and some physical therapy, which I teach patients how to do themselves at home. I also include nutritional counseling for healing inflammation.
